The considerations of global sustainability have dramatically increased the importance of the remanufacturing process. Many scholars have started focusing on this vital area from both a management and an engineering point of view. Previous studies have aimed to categorize this area using traditional review approaches, using a smaller body of literature and mostly focusing on the managerial aspects of remanufacturing. Our paper is the only study for which tech-mining and scientometric methods are used to examine remanufacturing research, for the purpose of identifying top actors and key trends with regard to business and technological approaches. We combine both management- and engineering-related studies in this scientometric study. The results shed light on the principal actors, nations, organizations, and scientific domains in this field. Remanufacturing research is categorized using the co-occurrence …
